D-Day at Last for the G-Man?


It appears that today might be "der Tag" for one of West Haven's "best citizens" (as once described by our Mayor.)

Gene Sullivan is scheduled to appear in court today to answer the charges for his part in connection with the burglary of a Police Commissioner's home.  (I originally posted on this sorry episode waaaaaaay back in March).

What hasn't been fully investigated, though, is the other issues surrounding Mr. S.

As I have repeatedly reported, our boy has steadfastly refused to pay his fair share of car taxes (his cars are registered out-of-state).  Of course, there's a reason:

Apparently, Golden Boy was caught by a contractor hired by the previous assessor (who was promptly fired).  Said case is now tied up in, um, "negotiations" between the City and said contractor.  Apparently, the City can't prosecute this case until this issue is settled...and it seems the City is in no rush to settle.

Hmmmmmm.

UPDATE   According to the State website, the case has been rescheduled for December 16th.  This is now the 18th time the case has been rescheduled.  For crying out loud, the Hayes death penalty murder trial didn't take this long!
